Re: sideways
Well, got the assymetric 2's on now. Took the knobbly bit down yesterday and boy do the tyres get close to the suspension arm. I had never noticed it before so another big thumbs up to this forum. Got to remember to sort out my tyre pressures out now.

Re: sideways

50 psi 
I run 38 if I know I'm going on a spirited run and 40-42 every other day (depending on the ambient).

No matter where you go, there you are.
Re: sideways
I think most of us run around 40psi on most of the tyres, otherwise it's just too hard.
If DRC is knackered you'll get, clonking noises over bumps, especially when the system is cold, and uneven handling. Inspection will show traces of hydraulic on the dampers

Re: sideways
Mine didn't. No oil traces, no clonking, no noises of any kind. However, over small bumps it was unpleasant. A bit like as if my tyres were too hard...Daveperc wrote:If DRC is knackered you'll get, clonking noises over bumps, especially when the system is cold, and uneven handling.

I remember my knocking noise from the right front side was gone after some hours on a ramp....but came back within a day...Daveperc wrote:If DRC is knackered you'll get, clonking noises over bumps, especially when the system is cold, and uneven handling.

Re: sideways
They get hot, therefore start at 38 with a 5psi uplift on heat. Not a lot different to track driving, unless you're using nitrogen.mavada wrote:I thought if youre driving at high speeds often, you'll have to have more psi in the tyres...by bam_bam » 01 Dec, 2011 - 09:11
